Hantavirus context · Cote d'Ivoire

Cote d'Ivoire sits in Africa, where hantavirus infection most often takes the form of infrequent but confirmed hantavirus exposure, including infections from Sangassou virus first described in Guinea.

Across this region the principal reservoirs are African wood mice (Hylomyscus simus) and other Murinae rodents native to West and Central African forests. Human exposure typically happens through inhalation of aerosolized droppings, urine, or saliva from these rodents — most often in rural housing, agricultural buildings, or poorly ventilated indoor spaces with recent rodent activity.
